Every ornament on my Christmas tree tells a story.
There's the turtledoves, representing my boyfriend and I. The sparkly heart, which was my first ornament and is still my most cherished. The trolley car commemorating a trip to San Francisco. About six different cat ornaments—because everyone who knows me knows I love cats.
Sure, my tree wouldn't win an award from Better Homes & Gardens, but it has personality.
